<\/p>\nRonny Mauricio was under no delusions when he was called up for an injured Juan Soto Tuesday: Playing time might be limited. He was there to provide versatility.<\/p>\n
What he did was provide the Mets with a win.<\/p>\n
In his first at-bat since being recalled from Triple-A Syracuse, Mauricio hit a walk-off 10th inning single off Paul Sewald as the Mets beat the Diamondbacks, 4-3,\u00a0at Citi Field. Bo Bichette\u2019s ground out moved ghost runner Francisco Lindor to third to lead off the inning.<\/p>\n
Down by a run in the eighth, Jorge Polanco singled off Jonathan Loaisiga to lead off the inning, and was lifted for pinch-runner Tyrone Taylor. With one out, Brett Baty rocketed a grounder up the middle that took a tough hop and skipped past a diving Geraldo Perdomo to put runners on the corners for a red-hot Jared Young, who skied a ball to the warning track to tie the score\u00a0at 3.<\/p>\n
The Mets loaded the bases with no outs in the first, behind three straight two-strike hits from Lindor, Bichette and\u00a0Polanco. Luis Robert Jr., who\u2019s been one of the team\u2019s best hitters with runners in scoring position, struck out swinging, but\u00a0Baty was able to muscle a ball to left despite strong winds, bringing a run home with a sacrifice fly and a\u00a01-0 lead.<\/p>\n
The Mets tacked on another in the second when Francisco Alvarez drew a two-out walk to bring up Lindor, who laced a double to a wall in right. Alvarez ran through the stop sign at third, but Corbin Carroll made a poor throw, missing the cutoff man and allowed\u00a0the unearned run to score.<\/p>\n
Freddy Peralta cruised until the fifth, when he loaded the bases with two outs on a single, a walk and a hit by pitch, summoning Huascar Brazoban from the bullpen. Brazoban looked to have Adrian Del Castillo struck out looking on a changeup, but ABS deemed otherwise. Del Castillo made the most of his second life, muscling a changeup\u00a0to right\u00a0for a game-tying, two-run single. Nolan Arenado then looped a ball to the no-man\u2019s land in shallow right center, driving in\u00a0Gabriel Moreno with the go-ahead run.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Peralta was charged with three runs and\u00a0three hits, with three walks and five strikeouts in 4 2\/3 innings.<\/p>\n
